Verifying Your Domain for Amazon SES Email
Receiving

As with any domain you want to use for sending or receiving email with Amazon SES,
you must
first prove that you own it. The verification procedure, which includes initiating
domain
verification with Amazon SES and then publishing a TXT record to your DNS server,
is described in
Verifying Domains in Amazon SES.

Note

Although Amazon SES enables you to verify single email addresses, you must verify
a domain
if you want to use Amazon SES for email receiving.

You can also start the domain verification process when you set up receipt rules in
Creating Receipt
Rules. The recipient list will indicate
which recipients are not verified, and enable you to initiate verification. In any
case, you
must complete domain verification by publishing a TXT record to your DNS server, as
described in Amazon SES Domain Verification TXT Records.

You can confirm that your email address or domain is verified by looking at its status
in
the Email Address Identities or Domain Identities
list in the Amazon SES console or by using the Amazon SES
GetIdentityVerificationAttributes API.
